Thanks for pointing out those specifics. Most of that is standard practice when 
migrating between major versions. It's always good to have the reminder though.

Subject: [Astlinux-users] Asterisk 11

I've started to test moving from Asterisk 1.8 to 11 on Astlinux and thought I 
would note a few things that I have discovered so far...

1) If you have any non-standard modules you will need to get new versions. e.g. 
res_fax_digium.so and codec_g729.so.  Asterisk 11 will crash on startup if you 
have the wrong fax module (you should temporarily turn off safe asterisk until 
you complete your migration... I got into a loop of 
crash/restart/crash/restart).  It will load the g729 (free version is what I 
used) but it won't work. In both cases versions for Asterisk 11 are available 
and do work.

2) Google talk/voice support has changed. New Motif and XMPP config files 
needed.  There can be no errors in motif.conf (like if you use their sample 
file which sets up jabber/talk/voice contexts that don't exist in xmpp.conf).  
The motif module will not load if there are any errors, need to clean out the 
.conf file to only have what you need.

3) Related to (2)... the jabber status command is now "xmpp show connections" 
which is set in the prefs tab of the web interface (you need to change it from 
jabber show connections).

4) There are many more .conf files in general.  I'm still going through them 
all.  But Astlinux has no easy way (that I can see) to help merge in new .conf 
files.  Once you have a kd with asterisk directory it replaces all the default 
conf files, not just ones that you may have modified.

Other than that, I have it running and seems to be working fine.
